Nugget Casino Resort

Marnell Gaming

For more than 60 years the Nugget Casino Resort has been an iconic destination in the Reno-Sparks, Nevada area. The Nugget features a full-service casino, 1,400 guest rooms and suites situated in two 28-story guest towers, eight restaurants, 110,000 square feet of meeting and special event space, a year-round atrium pool, a fitness center and two live entertainment venues.

Marnell Gaming acquired the Nugget in May 2016 with plans to improve and upgrade the landmark property while continuing long-standing community programs such as providing Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners at St. Vincent’s Dining Room. In addition, the Nugget’s premier special events like the Best In The West Nugget Rib Cook-Off and Star Spangled Sparks will carry on.

Marnell will initiate a significant capital improvement plan for the property. Improvements will include new slot machines, a complete renovation of the Nugget’s 800 West Tower hotel rooms and upgrades to the Nugget’s convention area, casino floor, restaurants and showroom.

“We see this as a remarkable opportunity to join forces with an iconic Nevada brand and one of Northern Nevada’s premier casino resorts,” said Anthony Marnell III, Chairman & CEO of Marnell Gaming. “We are entering the Reno-Sparks market during an exciting period of economic expansion and continue to prudently invest to broaden our portfolio with properties that will enhance our guest experiences.

Marnell’s portfolio includes the Colorado Belle and Edgewater casino resorts, two prominent casino-hotels on the Colorado River in Laughlin, Nevada. These properties offer a variety of retail, entertainment, gaming and dining options, onsite casinos with 1,464 slot machines, 40 table games, 10 live poker tables and more than 2,000 newly renovated hotel rooms.

A Brief Company History

For more than half a century, the Nugget and Northern Nevada have been inextricably linked. In fact, the great growth and evolution of the Nugget Casino Resort —originally a 60-seat coffee shop with only a handful of slot machines—has been a mirror image of the region's explosive expansion. Not content to rest on its storied history, the Nugget continues to make changes and upgrades to better serve both regional and local customers.

Community

Every year since 1955, the Nugget has provided free Thanksgiving and Christmas meals to an area shelter, and since 1961 the Nugget and St. Vincent’s have worked diligently to make sure that less fortunate folks enjoy a great holiday meal.The food served at St. Vincent’s is the same high-quality food served to casino guests at the Thanksgiving Buffet at the Nugget Casino Resort.
